eliminate the 'eliminator'...

by Bored Member

there is no place for a crude thing like 'elimination' in this 'gentlemanly' game... :)

vettori wants tie-breakers dumped from T20...

"I think a tie's a tie"

we agree with him...when 20 overs of mindless bang-bang lottery is not enough to separate the winner from the loser...then let it be...

why so much obsessive emphasis on the result in a T20 game...?

T20 has to have an ending with a winner and loser. Drawing one shouldbe highly more improbable than a drawing s test match. hat's also fun and am sure Vet might have felt differently if he could have clouted an extra six.

I'm all for making it even more difficult to end in a tie...the purpose is defeated otherwise in sitting through a truncated game. that thrill is an important and additional part of the game.

SB...it should not bee seen as truncated game...that's full T20 match...

the match ending in a tie isn't a thrilling prospect in itself?

I actually like the concept of the eliminator. I feel they should introduce one in ODIs as well. Sure a tie is thrilling but an eliminator is also fun to watch.

Better than the bowl out..
